It's a State law. I got the info from the American Motorcyclist Association's "Statewatch". I'm an AMA member, and they have info and updates on things like this through their monthly magazine. I'll try to find an actual link.

It's a good idea to join the AMA. They do alot to protect and enforce Rider's Rights, and could use our support.
